    Hey, I just finished the first two books in the Mercy Thompson series (Moon Called and something else) by Patricia Briggs. For some reason I was thinking you were wanting to read them. If you want I'll give them to you, just let me know.

    Hey there,

    I LOVE to cook and LOVE watching cooking shows. I saw "Julie & Julia" today and I have the itch to brew something-up! I tried to get Julia Childs' cook book after I saw the flick and was told it was back ordered for weeks! Can't wait to Cook!

    Bon Appetite,
    Erin

    Thanks! It's going ok. I am sick of this HEAT!!! 3 digit summer. The kids go back on Aug. 25th. I'm kinda happy and sad at the same time. I've been reading a lot, but I want to start sewing and knitting/crocheting again... I use all my free time reading, but I do own 365 books waiting to be read... ARG! My family needs to do an intervention to get be to stop buying books. I can't help myself.

    Where do you find your pics?? I like the lippy heifer.

    Cheerio,
    Erin

    thanks for the tip on the trailer. I don't advise reading Anne out loud. The character is known for her long monologues and flights of fancy and she can go on for two or three pages without drawing breath. Me, on the other hand - obviously I should have prepared with more aerobic activity before starting this one!

    Hmmmm, maybe not then. Thanks. This is the child who, after accidentally seeing about 10 minutes of The Matrix while her dad was watching it (she was maybe 6) came to me sobbing, "He should have taken the blue pill!" She can be pretty intense, so this book should probably wait a couple of years. YA can be so all over the place, it's nice to hear from someone who's read the book. My 9 year old would probably love it now, nothing phases her. Not that I'm going to recommend it to her - she and I are currently reading Anne of Green Gables, because I'm trying to focus her on more productive literary role models. Plus I'd never read it!

    I've been looking at The Forest of Hands and Teeth (love the title). What's the youngest age you'd recommend it for? I'm wondering if my 14 year old and I could read it together.

    Actually, the Special Acess Hubbing Model, was because you said you are a SAHM, and that stands for Special Access Hubbing Model as well. Sorry that the poker tournament did not work out, but maybe the job interview will work out. What does your hubby do?

    Hopefully, you will enjoy "Travels with Charley" I think it is a wonderful book. I am reading Amy Tan's "Saving Fish From Drowning" for the Amazing Read Challenge as well as the Humor tag. I am finishing listening to "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy that I started for the American Literature tag. I am still reading "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen Covey and "Sermons on Christ's Names and Titles" by Charles Spurgeon.

    My time to read is ocassionally in the evening, and then I get up at 5 each morning to have time to read and study before I go to work. What are you selling online?

    Hi! I'll answer your first note first...

    I did find the 9-9-9 challenge. I'm just going to keep the group in mind for now, and see if it's one they'll do again next year. I don't want to join in the middle of the year for it. Now that I know which group it's in, I'll just head back over there in Dec or Jan and see if they plan to do it again. Thank you!

    The travelling - well, that's the nice thing about cruises, you do get to a lot of places in one trip! Of course, the drawback is that you don't spend a lot of time at each place. It's only been the past couple of years I've really gone very far - that cruise last year was the only time I've been outside Canada/US. I'm hoping to do another one to Europe next year, though.

    I thought about you and Tenia adding all those reviews for PBT and Author Author. And you do way more than Tenia, even. I do find it a bit more awkward. I'm hoping it gets easier as we get used to it... The tags is the worst of it, though, I think. Everything is the same font, so nothing sticks out, which is really unfortunate, and I find it harder to scan through that way. The only way to do all that stuff that used to be in My Copy is only through the Edit window now. I'm not sure I've looked really hard afterwards for where to find the review. I think maybe I always (or almost always) went to the Reviews tab which lists them all.
